Our Clients Speak for Us

“Working with Tom Blackwell was a professional experience. His forensic interview with me proved tremendously beneficial in placing me with the right opportunity, at the right company and at the right time! Regardless of the many years of my work experience, this process taught me how important it is to have a professional, like Tom, use their invaluable experience and expertise to match my characteristics to a company in order to build a long-term career/relationship. He is extremely concerned of his and his company’s, reputation in delivering a career relationship that works for the candidate and the employer long term. I can’t say enough….”

“After working in the banking business for many decades, one year, I found myself searching for a new banking career. The first phone call I made was to Mark Angott. Mark and his firm uncovered three solid opportunities and helped me sort through several others that were not a fit for me or the banks recruiting for a Senior Lender Position. In the end, Angott Search Group helped deliver two offers with one additional pending. ASG’s knowledge of the overall banking market and all the opportunities available helped me make my final decision and the right career opportunity for me! Thanks again!”

“We have had the pleasure of working with Mark Angott, Charlie Tudor, and members of the Angott Search Group team for over 15 years. During that time, we’ve engaged their firm for a variety of senior and executive level officer searches. We have found that their network of resources in seeking potential candidates is on a national scale. More importantly, they take great care in determining the specific needs of our company, and the skills and experience required to insure success of any candidate needed to fill a specific position. We’ve also been impressed by their follow up after an engagement is completed, determining if both our bank and the candidate have been satisfied with the results. We would recommend Angott for anyone seeking professional advice to fill key vacancies in their organization.”

“I have worked with Don DeLaura since early 2015 on two search engagements. Both positions proved to very challenging international placements in our global sales organization. Don met personally with me to frame up and scope the positions. His keen insight to understand the company culture and my expectations resulted in the hiring of two highly qualified sales managers for our Japanese and European operations. Don handled the interview process deftly and provided a plethora of candidates to choose from. Don is very observant and responded quickly to addition requests for information and schedule changes. Both engagements were efficiently concluded in a very short period of time. Don is a consummate professional in the field of executive search and I would highly recommend him.”
